You can download it here i think if you no longer have it: http://www.fileshack.com/file.x/3634/Aquamark+3
I remember it being a royal pita to run on slow cards, since it has to render every scene, so it used to take forever on a 9200 or a GF4MX

My 9800 pro got an easy mid-high 30k iirc, but i only had 512mb RAM back then, and iirc AQ3 is pretty sensitive to the rest of your rig...

THis was run on a tbred-b@2.1/1GB RAM/Asus A7V8X/6600GT@583/1140.

EDIT: faster link, cheers Synth

Ahh AqM3. The fun I had getting all I could from an MX440, then a 9700pro.

That last explosion scene, oh the dizzy heights of straining for double figures in that last bit

 

[Zenoth]

Heh ... the benchmark worked until the end, and then just as it would go back to the score screen, it crashed to the Desktop with the following error message: http://img247.imageshack.us/img247/198/errorss5.jpg

I hate it when something like that happens. Works for everyone, and not for me. Grrr ...

who did you steal that score from?


----------------------------------------------------------------------

my score is 69500+

A64 3000+@2.87GHz
Asus 6800GT
GA-K8NS PRO
1GB DDR400

 

[happy medium]

65,000

 

[Lord Evermore]

84,839

X2 4200@2.475GHz, 1GB, eVGA 7600GT KO

28fps in the midst of the last explosion. The whole thing runs so fast I can't properly enjoy the scenery and quality of the rendering.

I never actually had hardware capable of running that in the days when it was popular.

I take it the company is out of business now, since their website is held by squatters.

Nice

I didn't drop below the even 20fps with my 6600GT in that last bit which i was quite impressed with...

That is a sweet sweet score, the demo must just blast past :Q

 

[Dritnul]

67k 7600gt a64 3500+ 1.5 gigs of ram

 

[Sunday Ironfoot]

Unfortunately, Aquamark isn't compatible with Windows XP x64bit, so right now my score is 0, even though I have an X1900XT and Athlon X2 3800 (2.6GHz)

 

[Pabster]

How about 19,080 with my X300SE

Damn, and I was gonna go for lowest score with my 6800NU...

Nearly done downloading.

 

[Rockinacoustic]

I've never tried Aquamark actually. If 3Dmark is a measure of CPU and more importantly GPU capabilities (to simply put), then what exactly is Aquamark a measure of?

 

[MmmSkyscraper]

52,692 with a 6800NU/A64 3200.

aquamark measures your CPU and GPU also. your score is your average framerate from the test.

Same here. Don't feel like installing a different OS to score 100k+ in a 3 year old benchmark, oh well

Edit: I remember getting somewhere between 30k and 40k on my old 9700 Pro back in the day...

 

[Rockinacoustic]

58,178 with my stock A64 3500 and a 6600gt @ 585/1110Mhz

I'm getting the same thing as Zenoth. This happened on two different systems. My old 3.2GHz P4 and my new Core 2 E6700. The benchmark completes but the score screen doesn't show up and gives me that same error message Zenoth got. This sucks, I used to be able to do the benchmark just fine. I wanna know how much improvement I'm getting with my new build.
